Pepperage farm moments

[Bsrking5]

Sometimes while on discord or psn messed up party i have those moments. The moments like they ruined battlefield when they removed the ability to ride mavs. My last one was do you remember when paladins could rez, pepperage farms remembers, this being in palace of the dead and being the only one who survived a bomb with the see traps floor buff up. No, i totally didn't do it.

I know i can't be the only with these. Y'all have any funny stories or moments when this happens, share below.

i remember the ole days when healers had to cast protect and stoneskin, there was always that one tank that refused to pull anything unless he had stoneskin on. so glad that skill got removed

i remember when in order to get a cross class ability you had to actually level that class, everyone that wanted swiftcast had to level a blackmage

i remember when cleric stance was a thing and most wipes were caused by healers that forgot to turn cleric stance off before healing because of the group mentality that healers have to dps

[RyuDragnier]

Remember when DRK was the most complex tank, when you had to manage your aggro, your DPS, your MP, and your cooldowns at the same time?
Remember when defensive cooldowns were practically mandatory for trash pulls because the mobs hit THAT hard?
Remember when defensive cooldowns had lower cooldown timers?
Remember when healer was high risk/reward when you were playing for DPS due to Cleric Stance?

I remember when the game was dying because x.

Oh wait, people still say that.

[Stirlingite22]

I remember when you needed different types of glamour prisms for different types of items. And you didn't unlock glamouring until level 50.
I also remember when AST cards actually did interesting things instead of all just damage buffs. lol
I can't say a whole lot since I've only started playing since just after SB came out. lol But those are a couple that I remember.

I remember when an unlucky party comp made Aurum Vale more or less unwinnable...

And watching SCH/SMN pets die to mechanics because there was no way to cleanse the stacks off of them. >.>

[ReynTime]

I remember when cross-class skills gave a small degree of customization to builds.
I remember when dungeons weren't designed specifically with 'daily roulette' in mind.
I remember when the concept of "class" and "job" were distinct and despite being poorly executed had a lot of potential to make "builds" a real thing.
I remember when the challenge of the combat wasn't "just the boss mechanics". Also see signature.
I remember when XIV still remembered it was a Final Fantasy game rather than a light-lifesim.

[TaleraRistain]

I remember setting skill points on your own.

Also how much of a pain in the behind that was with Summoner and Scholar because they only got the one base set of Arcanist points.

[MicahZerrshia]

I remember the time before mounts and sprint when we had to slow run around the entire world because we didn't have enough anima to teleport.
I remember the times when fatigue was an actual game system.
I remember running through long corridors to get out of a city or go from east thanalan to central thanalan so one map could unload and a new one could load so we could have a "seamless" overworld experience
I remember doing skill chains with other people in my party
I remember having to carry around 10 stacks of arrows so I didn't run out during a dungeon
I remember needing searching through a sea of retainer vendors for tufts of cotton to make a patch to repair my cotton robe and then search through more to get some wood chips to make the item I needed to repair my bow, then going through even more for leather scrap to make leather strips so i could repair my shoes
I remember breaking ifrit's horns to change the fight somehow, but I can't remember how it changed

Version 1 had some interesting ways to overcomplicate things....

Did you have to remind me of 1.0's Black Shroud map? Also, I still miss the bridge leading out of Limsa Lominsa, I just liked hanging out there enjoying the scenery. I have a picture of the server shutdown from there, since I was too weak to survive the trip to Carteneau to attempt to help.
